Hulu Plus: It's been a long time since we've last seen any sort of major update to Hulu Plus's iPad app. And thankfully, its newest incarnation has been completely redesigned from the ground up. And as any and all streaming apps are wont to do these days, the redesign puts a major focus on discovery. Whenever you see a thumbnail of a show or movie that might be unfamiliar to you, just tap the image and you'll be zapped into the brand new "discover panel." Here, you'll get info on both shows and their individual episodes in addition to a selection of content picked special, just for you.

Wikiweb: Wikipedia is stuffed full of mind-blowing amounts of information that youcan't even begin to dream of reading. With Wikiweb, though, at least the parts you do get to will be easily navigable, clean, and with a clever new way of laying out information for you. Anything you search will be presented to you as a single dot, which you can then swipe left and right from to find related articles. The really cool part, though, is that tapping search again brings you into an awesome, mind-map mode of discovery that shows you your topic and all the related ones on a giant, interconnected web.
